. - ^. ......, BY JULIAN A. SELBY. Chtnbsb Indifference to Death ?! The Chinese are almost indifferent to | the phenomenon of dissolution, and frrquently compass their own end I wlun life becomes wearisome. A wife | sometimes elects to follow her husband on the starlit road of death; aud pa? rents will destroy their offspring in time of famine and great distress, rather than allow them to suffer. Stib more remarkable is the oustom of sell? ing their ?vet in order that they may purchase the superior advantage of ob? sequies, whioh are considered to insure | the body in safety for the future resur? rection. A wealthy man oondamned to death, will arrange with his jailer to bay him a substitute for a aertain sum of sonsy, to be spent open the poor wretch's interment and preservation of his body. Should he have parents, so mnob is annually paid to them in compensation for their son's life. Chinamen invariably help to support their parents; filial respect and - devo? tion 'is the great Chinese virtue andj religions precept, in whioh they rarely fail. Regarding death as inevitable, be makes the best of a bad bargain, and cunningly and comically gets paid for dying. The wholesale destruction of life in this country is greatly the result of indifference. Hence, the mas9aore of Europeans, so terrible to ua, seems I to them a matter of little moment, and they bannot comprehend why we should make a fuss abuut it. They re? gard our indignant protestation very muoh as we might treat our irate neigh? bor whose dog we had shot. "Well, well, be pacified; if it was snoh a fa? vorite, I am sorry, but it is only a dog, and there are plenty more. How muoh I do yon want to be paid for it?" "You English think so mach of a life," ar? gues the Chinese; "have yon not pleu- j iy of people at home?" Death in Chi? na is awarded as? the punishment for most'trivial offences, and frequently for none at all, except being in some? body's way. A story was told me as fact, that I during the visit of one of the royal | prinoes, a theft was committed of a chain or. watch belonging to the royal guest. The unfortonate attendant! was eaught with the property upon him, and without farther csrcmony his head was chopped off. The man? darin in attendance immediately an? nounced the tidings to the prince as a | delicate attention, showing how de? voted be was in his service. To bis I astonishment, the prince expressed his ] great regret that the man's head had < been taken off. "Your Highness," cried 'the obsequious mandarin, bow? ing to the ground, "it shall immedi? ately be put on again 1" so little did he understand that the regret was for the life taken, and not the severed bead. In times of .insurrection or famine the mowing down of human life is like corn-stalks at harvest time, appalling to Earopean ideas. ' I must confess to a nervous shuddering when I atood npon the execution groond at Canton? a narrow lane or potter's field?whero so many hundred bad been butchered per diem daring the week-i together, the executioner requiring the aid of I two smiths to sharpen his swords, for j many of the writhed victims were not allowed to be destroyed at ono fell swoop, but sentenced to bo "hacked to | pieces" by twenty to fifty blows. I was informed by a European who had traveled mach and seen moat of the frightfal side of life, that witnessing Chinese executions was more than his iron nerves could stand; and in some of the details which he wus narrating I was obliged to beg bim to desist. And yet he says there was nothing solemn about it, and the spectators looked on moused. It was the horri? ble aud grotesque combined. A white man, named W. C. Morean, while sitting with his family, in San- j dersville, Ga., a few nights ago, was fired upon nud instantly killed, by a negro. Election of City Clerk.

C, Nov. 1, 1871. f N view of tho nearapn'oach of another JL PLANTING SEASON, I tak? this me? thod of calling your attention to some facte concerning tbo'uae. of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUaNO, which I think you will find both interesting and valuable. Boing among lha first wh > introdacod Oatoo into this Stale, linn confidently rofor to my plant? ing friends, that iu the series of years I have Hold thorn manures, 1 have alwave given a pare article. PorobaBers will find [ it to their mterost to givo me a call before buying, as from the facilities I have, and I my long experience in tho business, I am enabled to fill all orders promptly and at tho lowest price. HOL.UUL.R PACIFIC OUA?O, It is now an admitted fact, established and confirmed bv many years' experience in the use of SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO, that an o> dinary application to Cotton and 0 jrn inoreasos tho yield to donble the pro? duction of tho same soil unfertilized. TIub I statemeut is in uowiso exaggerated; on the j contrary, the results more frequently ex? ceed than fall short of the above iucreaie. The importaucs of an agency whioh thins increases the products of hired labor, can? not bo over-estimated. It ie an agency which makea two bales of cotton and two I barrels of corn grow where one grow hofore. It is an agency which makes the labor of | one man equal to tho labor ofttco. It is an agenoy which makes one acre nnder culti? vation oqiifi.1 to t>no acres. It is an agency which, it will be found by fair calculation, pays the consumer, with cotton at present or even lower price, throe to five dollars back for every one dollar invested, and this within a period of eight months' time. The above statements are not mere assertions, bat are verified by moro than nine years' experienoe, and uro testified to by thou? sands of farmerB and planters tbroughont tho Middle and Southern states. If it be true, as stated, that the crop is double by tho use of this Guano, let us see what the ff.a centum or profit ie when applied to cotton, putting tho price of cotton at 15 cents per ponnd. Planters often Bay they havo made 100 per cent., because the Qu- ] ann has doubled the crop. That is a mis-1 take; it is much more than ? profit of 100 per cent, on tbo money invented. Let us calculate tbo profit. To arrive at tho por cent, of profit on an investment, tho net cost must bo divided into the net j gain. Now, if an acre of ground will pro 1 dnce 150 pounds lint cotton without8?LUBUE j Pacifc Guano, and wiii produce 300 poundB by tho usu of 200 uouuds Holurle Pacific I Guano, then tho increase from the use of the Guano is 150 pounds lint cotton, the cost of which is the money value of 200 pounda Guano. Hence, if we dodnot the cost of tho Guano from the valno of 150 pounds cotton produced by it, we havo the net gain from its use; then, if we divide tho cost of tbo 200 pounds Guano into the net cain. wo got tho exact nor cent, of profit. Tims: 150 poundB cotton, net gain from uso of 200 pounds Guano, at 15 cents por pound.$22.50 Deduct cost of 200 pounds Guano (cash price) 14.8.00 per ton. 1801 Net profit.$17 70 Now divido $4 80, net cost, into $17.70. net gain, and tbe result is 368, which is 368 por cent. In other words, for every dollar thua invested, $4 68 is roceived in return, one of whioh is the original investment, and $3 US are cloar nrotlt, thus being $3.68 for one, which is 368 par cent. Is out this a fair aad correct showing ? If not, where is tbe error? Now, if It be true to one-half tho above extent, Soi.uri.k Pacific Quano is an agency of tho hignest vAlne to agricul? ture, and wo commend it to yon in season. I also invite your attention to Pacific Guano Company's Compound Acid Phosphate of Lime. For composting with Cotton Sued, Manu? facture.1 at the Comp iny's Works, near I Charleston, S.
